Lost my Grandmother earlier this year and being indigenous from another country I can personally relate to a lot of the slang/traditions that the Native Americans use in this show, because our language is lost we didn’t have Elders singing my grandmother a beautiful send off but we did everything else the show portrayed in this episode. I was a mess after this episode but it is the best episode this show has had so far, I hope it gets the full run of seasons it deserves, it’s such an important show and is slowly becoming my favourite thing on television.
@@zoo-wee-mama1689 I feel your pain, COVID took my grandmother she was the most beautiful spirit ever. Gave me the spirit name Little Man because she said I had a strong spirit like the Cheyenne leader. Even though she was Powhatan she considered all humans her people just as the creator intended
This episode is arguably the best one yet from the series; so powerful, emotional and very well acted! My only question is, why hasn't the show been nominated for an Emmy? It more than deserves to be!
Honestly I think it hasn't been viewed enough. I just started watching it and man it is a good show with like a 90s vibe to it or I don't know hard to explain guess it just feels unique and real with hilarious comedy to it
In 30 minutes, this little, quiet show will make you laugh, cry, and give you a reason to keep on breathing, no matter what. It'll break your heart into pieces, and then just as quickly put it back together, just to remind you what living is all about.
I absolutely love this show. The actors are so real. They're not the usual Hollywood airbrushed actors. A 94 pound blue eyed blond girl or a 6 foot 2 190 pound guy with flowing hair. They are so real. They are us with many faults and imperfections. I don't want this show to go on for 9 years. I want it to be a 4 or 5 year series and just end with us rooting for all of them to find peace.
Grandma Mabel was played by Geraldine Weams, who started her illustrious acting career in Clint Eastwood's revisionist classic Western "The Outlaw Josey Wales" as Little Moonlight
This is how a person should leave this earth, with family and loved ones gathered around them. Not in a hospital, alone and scared with people that treat you just as another patient.
That's how a lot of people die. My grandfather unfortunately died alone in a nursing home. We thought he was rehabbing, but he didn't make it. My grandmother was in home hospice. We took turns laying with her and singing hymns for 2 days. On the third night I slept in her room on an air mattress. I had a feeling she was passing that night. She was gone the next morning.
Ive been to a couple natives funerals on Six Nations for friends of mine and member of my step family. The amount of grief is hard to deal with. But the amount of happy memories they talk about balances things out a bit, makes things not to hard to process. Shout out to my loved ones from Six Nations, and New Credit
This scene hits hard. I myself am from the rez, Lost my Grandma just a couple months before this episode dropped. Its all i could think about when i seen this was my Grandma. But one thing i admire is that her spirit was even telling jokes. One thing my Grandma' always told me was to always make sure to remember the funny moments when your in mourn, Humor in our Native Culture is great healing medicine for people who are going through hard times. I know its hard to do in times like this but you always gotta do you best to stay strong because it isnt the end for us. Us Sioux in our language dont have a word for goodbye. Its until next time. Ill live by that till the day i die.
i went through the same thing..when she ran out of the house and cried MAN, i cried like a BABY!! this scene was very sad and hit home for me. RIP to my late grandmother. i love you, always and forever.
This is the best TV content on any platform in the past 10years. It would be easy to argue even longer. I cry and laugh every episode. Right when I'm wrecked, Mabel comes back and sets it right from the spirit world.
This show is the live-action avatar-last-airbender we deserved. Magical. Spiritual. Powerful. They crack me up for most of an episode then take a quick break to absolutely shatter my heart. These writers clearly have a hundred ancestors in their ears.
Man, when she said 'shitass'... That was grandma's nickname for my sis, mine was 'pissant'. Departed almost 2 years ago now, but she still kicks around in hearts and heads... Love ya gran
This scene hurts me so much... not saying it's bad or anything but personally, I lost my grandmother in 2019.. and I felt like Elora, I just walked out of my home to get air and I cried so hard my chest hurted.. I slumped down onto the ground. I imagine my grandmother saying I did good at her funeral, carrying her casket, and comforting my family, especially my mom.. it was a hard day...for everyone. This show gets the native experience.. death is painful.. but it's nice knowing you're grandparents are going to a better place somewhere..
Not indigenous but this show meant a lot to me because that’s how my Dad went 3 years ago. My Mom and I were with him and he went peacefully at home. Very similar to the way the Grandmother passed. Very moving moment in the show.
This episode was just the BEST. It also illuminated for me how we corn people have some of the same mourning rituals and that’s probably why Kawennehère/Devery was able to add such depth and emotion to the writing. Absolutely beautiful and very perfect.
My grandma was Yaqui. Christian but she still held onto some beliefs of her mom. After she passed she’d show up in dreams to my mom, telling her to not be sad. Life was good.
I'm Navajo, and my grandmother was Christian. Had a funeral for her.. I can't remember if she knew any of her culture.. or she was fully colonized by the bordering schools.
Amazingly, that's what also happened when my father died of esophageal cancer 15 1/2 years ago. He showed up in my dream to tell me that he was proud of me.
This scene stills breaks me. It made me miss my grandma who passed away almost 8 years ago like she just passed yesterday. Made me learn the meaning “We never really move on. We just cope and focus on the positive.”
Whooa, Kia Ora from Aotearoa that was a Deep Tangi,felt a connection inside,My Nana was the last of our Maori line connected to the old ways,this was touching.
Brings back so many memories being there for my nali lady “Fathers mother” we all sat around her sang while she took her last breath . This scene is so strong and shows how strong Native American families are when they are together
I understand now..I understand the importance in our ways that one passes.. You need to be there. My Mother a coupla years ago had passed.. I went in to her Hospice to say goodbye..She couldn't talk anymore nor sit up in her bed... I spoke with her and said my goodbyes as she looked at me...Kissed her on her forehead " I will see you soon Mother" a day passed when i was asked by my Sisters to come back to the hospice (mom Had passed) They and a medicine man were to see her off..I had work that day and could not come.... I understand now The anger my Siblings had towards me.. I understand this now that when one is transitioning from here to there the Importance of being there...to see them off.
This was such an incredibly powerful scene. Devery Jacobs gave a masterful performance as someone so overcome w/ grief that all they could do is run away and burst into tears. Her emotions were raw and believable, and in the lead up to her emotional display, the bubbling up of these feelings to the surface could be felt by the audience in her uncomfortability in her own skin. This was just tremendous.
This one kills me. I also watched my grandma take her last breaths. It was devastating. Like Elora, I was so overcome, I had to leave the room. I actually threw up because it was so visceral and traumatic to see. RIP Grandma 💔❤️🔥
For those of us who grew up around "relatives who speak or see the dead" or know a few psychics or 2 or several as myself they always retain their personalities haha. Sometimes they'll come back in dreams and talk or conversation or give a warning. Once in a while you'll get one that's a little mischievous. A lot of times they stay around to keep an eye on you and other loved ones. They never truly leave. And yes if you ask for help from them they will help you.😊
I think this show does show alot of typical life on the rez This in an awesome my grandfather was an apache he lived in the rez too I love native American culture because I'm part native
We all got to face that reality when you loose your loved one when they either get sick or just go when their time comes. But I faced it once I think when my grandmother and grandfather make their journey to the other side I know that they lived a long life
Teenie and Rita are cousins but played by real-life sister Sarah and Tamara Podemski, the former of whom was part of the reason I decided to watch this show as I knew her from Total Drama.
This scene is so raw...the day I found out my grandfather passed away, the first thing I said was I need air and walked out of my house, I was so upset that I didn't realise how far away I had walked from the house, my brother had to come and pick me up. This scene hit home.
Anyone knows the name of the song played right before Mabel died? Lyrics start with ‘I like to hide away, in plain sight…’ I tried shazam already, also can’t find it on google
Sep 17th 2021 I did what she did after my mom died ran outside I ran to the hogan alone n sat on the door step than cried I couldn’t breathe than I 📱call my ex girlfriend i said she’s gone my mom. Ik the feeling Elora
There are worse people to be haunted by than Mabel ❤️
Now I know I'm part native, I'm seeing William knifeman in my dreams
@@averagejoe413 lol
She seems pretty cool to be honest. She can swing by my place and haunt me anytime.

There's nothing like a good grandmother. Irreplaceable.

Yes
Tell them, you were once famous in the comments. 👏👏 😪
You said it so perfectly.
Well said.
"Don't give away my blue willow dish set, I'll haunt you!!! Bye"
Such a Native granny "don't get rid of my stuff"
Just hearing them sing makes my eyes well up.😭
I just noticed that the grandma is walking towards the sunset. The direction of death. When the day grows dark and dies

This episode had me crying, reminds me a lot of my family and grandma, especially the end
When people think matriarch they misconstrued that to mean mother, but no it the mother of our mother and her mother before that nurtured the family
As a latino this show hits hard many of us are disconnected from our original culture and ancestors just wish they would make it in spanish
This episode hit me hard, as I wasn’t able to see my grandma in her last days so this just brings back the memory’s

devery jacobs deserves an emmy just for this scene alone.
She deserved any Emmy after that episode when she found Daniel, that part always gets to me because it feels so real.

Is that term of endearment? I’ve just never anyone say shitass until this show but I also don’t know any native Americans

my family was watching this episode a couple days after my own grandma passed away in hospice. it’s safe to say that there were no dry eyes ❤❤

Just stellar acting all the way around in this series!
Looking/want the spirit scene from this episode. The one with the plate. Love the spirit. He is the best character, ever.
I think thats one thing the Native Youth need to be told today and always, "You did good today."
Its a crime that this show hasn't won MULTIPLE emmys.
Grandma didn’t want my one aunt to get her Blue Willow. She got it anyhow. No hauntings reported.

Man I really hope we see Devery Jacobs in more stuff in the future, her acting is great in this show
Not to mention her writing; she co-wrote this episode!
@@IronCurtaiNYC That’s cool, I didn’t know that! So she’s just all around talented
Brings back so many memories being there for my nali lady “Fathers mother” we all sat around her sang while she took her last breath . This scene is so strong and shows how strong Native American families are when they are together
I wish we all could have a moment like this when the ones we really love pass on.
I had this with my beloved grandmother and will never forget it. This scene felt like watching myself in the character of Elora.
I love this show .

I think this show does show alot of typical life on the rez
This in an awesome my grandfather was an apache he lived in the rez too
I love native American culture because I'm part native
This hit me on soo many levels 😥❤️
Her grandma sounds like an indigenous Rosanne Barr.
😂
Rosanne Barr is bipolar and a racist.
My thoughts exactly.
We all got to face that reality when you loose your loved one when they either get sick or just go when their time comes.

May be a dumb question but we’re can I buy Mabel’s jacket it’s cute?😅
This hit hard.. NGL 😢
In our First Nations of Turtle island community, we don't say goodbye, because we will meet in the Spirit world.
We say "see ya later"
That’s only the beginning, see how much it hurts when the elders are gone and the younger ones didn’t pick up the language 😉
Native people are better than you, I am Mao related.
I wish I could've been there for my grandmother..

I hope she randomly visits her
I cry to.
At about 2:18, I hear a voice. I may be mistaken.
Awe
Anyone know the name of the song they’re all singing? It reminds me going to a family members house, and they were sick.
My reaction if I came back as a ghost to say goodbye to my loved one I’d say.
“Heyyyyy why you crying for you know I’d rather see you smile”
Got cheated out of being there for my gg in 2020 and my aunty this year. This is what they said when i prayed ❤
Anyone know the name of the song the elders are singing ..it's beautiful..
I too watched my grandmother last breathed she was a proud choctaw women
Show always leaves me heavy
Anyone knows the name of the song played right before Mabel died? Lyrics start with ‘I like to hide away, in plain sight…’
